Many years ago, frigid ice covered the land. The people feared the never-ending snow, giving in to fear. They all wondered what this meant, and how they could get rid of it. For decades, both men and women wished for the snow to vanish, to once again feel the grass on their bare feet.
Now, nearly a century later, the people of the land became accustomed to the freezing temperature. They gave up on all hope, and any thoughts of the past were gone.
..........................................................................
The snow isn't the worst thing the people of this land must face. Far East, the kingdom of Edoani lies. It's ruled by a ruthless queen, whose only joy is to see her citizens tortured and miserable. The heir to the throne, Prince Derric, hasn't a chance winning the people's favour.
The queen has many guards, two of which she's bestowed lots of power. Keteus and Jak are great enemies, who do their best to make each other miserable.
Avira, a well-known assassin, has escaped from her kingdom of birth, Geitram. When things went wrong, she knew she had to run, but life in Edoani doesn't seem to be much better.
Felisia is a witch from Lardosh, who's come to Edoani as a quest from her queen. She's one of the best witches in her kingdom, and hiding her abilities seems almost impossible.
Deep down in the dungeons of Edoani, a faery named Emayn is bound. The queen saw her as a threat, and is the only one who knows of her existence. But it may not stay that way for long...
Edwin, the royal assassin, has had a life full of misery. Could someone ever change his ways, and bring him back to the light?
.....................................................................
This story is filled with drama, adventure, romance, and betrayal. As the eight join together to end the queen's reign and end the winter, many obstacles get into their way. How many lives will be lost, and who will survive the great freeze?

Chronicles of Avaloria
Nearly three centuries ago, the once-mighty human-dwarven alliance of Ostrovia was destroyed during a brutal series of civil wars and political malfeasances. Ancient blood magic and dwarven machinery fueled the death and destruction. Kings turned on one another, and the great wizards were corrupted by their own power. In the last days of the fall, the orc tribes, united by chaos and bloodshed, descended from the mountains and destroyed the war-torn kingdom, becoming the new dominant race of the land, leaving humanity on the brink of extinction. During those final days, a group of desperate survivors set course on a bold expedition into the perilous and uncharted Sea. Against all odds, a single ship crashed upon the shores of Avaloria... a realm steeped in ancient magic and guarded by a living forest teaming with dangerous enemies and undiscovered wonder. Now, nearly three centuries later, under the steadfast leadership of Aldros Valtir, the descendants of that fateful journey labor to rebuild civilization in the new world. At the edge of the wild frontier, young Aelar Varos has grown up in Harrow's End, a modest village, clinging to the untamed forests of Avaloria. But when Aelar unwittingly attracts the attention of something more powerful than he can fathom, it sets his destiny on an uncertain course. Cedric Valtir, eldest son of the King and heir to the throne, is loved by his men and women in equal measure. In the bustling heart of Valoria, where the lively corridors of The Silver Stag echo with hope and revelry, Cedric bridges his regal past with the promise of a new future. With his effortless grace, keen intellect, and warm humor, he inspires his people as he listens to their dreams and fears, even as whispers of impending threats swirl around him. But what will fate have in mind when he leaves the walls of the city that defines him?
